Feline Friday # 528
Feline Friday was started by Steve, The Burnt Food Dude, and i’m going to believe it’s because he likes cats.
He handed hosting off to Sandee at Comedy Plus, and she did a fabulous job, but she’s stepping back and now i’m going to be trying my hand at it.

A Facebook group I belong to asked for a childhood memory so I found my Dad and I when I was about 3 and posted that. I thought that it would make for a FUN Post here as well.
Veterans Day or Remembrance Day and or Armistice Day
At the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month – we will remember them. The Armistice, an agreement to end the fighting of the First World War as a prelude to peace negotiations, began at 11am on 11 November 1918. Armistice is Latin for to stand (still) arms.
It Called Veterans Day in the United States it is also know as Armistice day or Rememberance Day in the Commonwealth of Nations

Is no more. The new faceplate. It was not cheap to buy the replacement and have it installed cost me $1415.00.
